Crown and Country: 2012), but It Is Not a Generic Term Applied Across Aboriginal Nations to Describe Creationism Crown and Country: 2012), but it is not a generic term applied across Aboriginal Nations to describe creationism. Negotiating the One Space The term, ‘Country’ is used by Aboriginal Peoples as an expression and identifier that embodies the relationship with ancestral homelands and the multi-layered relationships with mob, kin community, spirits, foods, language, animals, songs, stories and ceremonial places that belong to those homelands. Essentially, ‘Country’ links to everything that upholds Aboriginal Mr Greg Kitson Emeritus Professor Darryl Low Choy Dr Silvia Serrao-Neumann Peoples and culture (Gammage 2012, New South Wales Government 2018). Aboriginal culture permits that ‘Country’ is to Cities Research Institute School of Environment School of Social Sciences be loved, needed, nourished and nurtured in its central role to guide continuation of the Dreaming. In return, ‘Country’ loves, Griffith University Griffith University The University of Waikato needs, nourishes and nurtures Aboriginal Peoples and communities and all other living things (Kwaymullina 2005). Queensland, Australia Queensland, Australia Hamilton, New Zealand [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Quandamooka ‘Country’ is located in South East Queensland (SEQ). It possesses traditional boundaries that extend from the mouth of the Brisbane River then north-east to Mulgumpin (Moreton Island), south past Minjerribah (Stradbroke Professor David Jones Island) to Southport (Gold Coast) then north along the mainland coast to the mouth of the Brisbane River, taking all the Faculty of Science, Engineering & Built Environment southern bay islands and a small ribbon of coastal land. Since the beginning of Quandamooka Dreaming, the Quandamooka Deakin University Peoples have understood their sovereignty, ancestral boundaries and practiced their distinct culture which is indelibly Victoria, Australia linked to an obligation to ‘Country’, which underpins a system of cultural knowledge and values to sustainably manage, [email protected] adapt and exist in the environment (QYAC 2017), a blueprint for ‘Aboriginal community planning’. This blueprint pre- dates any modernised version of sustainability principles and has remained unchanged in the spirit and minds of the Quandamooka Peoples, who are the Nughi of Mulgumpin and the Nunukul and Goenpul of Minjerribah (Peacock 2002). The concept of ‘Country’ is central to Aboriginal culture and has sustained the Quandamooka Peoples (the Quandamooka) of South East Queensland (SEQ) for 40,000 years. On 4 July Today, the three clans are attempting to continue to practice traditional culture and the management of lands and waters 2011, the Federal Court of Australia determined that 54,500ha of exclusive and non-exclusive throughout the Quandamooka estate within the modern collaborative planning paradigm. However, current Quandamooka Native Title rights over land and waters, occupied continuously and managed sustainably by co-management of their lands and waters with various governments has come at considerable cost and at the behest of a the Quandamooka Peoples, be legally vested in these Peoples. This formal recognition, of tenure Eurocentric land use planning system which is not yet fully appreciative of Aboriginal Peoples traditional obligations to under Australian law, marked an important milestone for the Quandamooka, and offered ‘Country’ and cultural values systems (Cole-Hawthorne, Jones et al. 2015). Under representation of Aboriginal values the opportunity to re-assert Quandamooka lore, customs, culture and sovereignty, over these systems in land use planning systems is exacerbated further when Aboriginal traditional owners (TOs) commence lands and water, which are pillars to the concept of ‘Country’. Today, two Indigenous Land Use their navigations of the Australian planning systems with little knowledge or experience in the field and through under Agreements (ILUAs) operate in Quandamooka lands and waters, assisting parties to negotiate representation as a major stakeholder. future actions through a complex multi-layered planning system, all of which affect ‘Country’. Achieving these outcomes may require the incorporation of ‘Country’, as a traditional planning The ability for Aboriginal communities to participate in land use planning matters is again threatened by requests to surrender framework, into this Eurocentric planning system. Thus, embedding Quandamooka recognised native title rights by extinguishment (even without an approved claim) and forego any longer term economic benefits (Sanders title rights and interests into conventional local land use planning frameworks to align and 2016) or by discriminatory policy which threatens to close down remote communities which are deemed by government maximise land use planning outcomes that benefits the local community, particularly Traditional intellect as merely a subsidised ‘lifestyle choice’, as described in 2015 by then Prime Minster Tony Abbott (Griffiths 2017).

In a narrative summary, this paper examines and reviews the major land title transitions of Quandamooka ‘Country’ and identifies a possible role that ‘Country’ can play in This paper seeks to demarcate major transition periods in relation to Quandamooka Peoples rights to manage lands and innovating a new way of addressing Indigenous values of ‘Country’ in the Australian planning waters and current efforts to restore these rights. Examples are given which demonstrate how the concept of ‘Country’ can system. be incorporated into land use planning and suggests future options to increase inclusion and appreciation of Aboriginal community planning values in the planning discipline.

The INTRODUCTION overarching aim of this project is to validate and value the relationships with ‘Country’ for unique urban and peri-urban Aboriginal populations.

As an attempt to complement Indigenous research methodologies and the need to maximise Aboriginal views in research about planning in Aboriginal communities, the first transition period literature After creation, the famous Quandamooka poet, Oodgeroo Noonuccal asserted, derives only from Quandamooka oral history or scholarly publications by a Quandamooka descendant. The second and third transition periods incorporates both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal literature. “… he (the creator) then gave our ancestors knowledge to pass on through learned and natural expression the ways and means of existence without having to defeat his gifts.” The first transition period provides a very brief account of the original system of sustainable land use planning and (Martin and Mirraboopa 2003) management of the Quandamooka estate. The second transition period briefly describes the systematic removal of Quandamooka rights to lands and waters and the imposed Eurocentric and extraction focused land use planning and This assertion grounds the existing values system and reciprocal relationship between Quandamooka ‘Country’ and the resource management objectives of the British.

Durithunga – Growing, nurturing, challenging and supporting urban Indigenous leadership in education i Language Weaves As highlighted in the following thesis, there are a number of key words and phrases that are typographically different from the rest of the thesis writing. Shifts in font and style are used to accent Indigenous world view and give clear signification to the higher order thought and conceptual processing of words and their deeper meaning within the context of this thesis (Martin, 2008). For ease of transition into this thesis, I have created the “Language Weaves” list of key words and phrases that flow through the following chapters. The list below has been woven in Migloo alphabetical order. The challenge, as I explore in detail in Chapter 5 of this thesis, is for next generations of Indigenous Australian writers to relay textual information in the languages of our people from our unique tumba tjinas. Dissecting my language usage in this way and creating a Language Weaves list has been very challenging, but is part of sharing the unique messages of this Indigenous Education field research to a broader, non- Indigenous and international audience. The following weaves list consists of words taken directly from the thesis.

    Report on: Erosion at Cloherty’s Peninsular, Moreton Island 1.0 Introduction This report has been prepared by the Coastal Management Unit of Environment Planning for Moreton Bay Marine Park Operations to assess the coastal processes affecting the eastern shoreline of Cloherty’s Peninsular, Moreton Island. Erosion of this beach has exposed a disused landfill site on a reserve (Lot 51 on SL8794) located east of the Kooringal Township. The purpose of this assessment is to investigate channel migration and other coastal processes that may be contributing to erosion of the subject beach. The assessment will assess the likely rate of erosion over the short to medium term and provide some advice on the likely long term prospects for this beach. 2.0 Site Description The study site is the eastern beach of Cloherty’s Peninsular, Moreton Island between Mirapool to the north and Reeders Point to the south (refer Figure 1). This beach has a south-easterly aspect and is exposed to waves from the east to north-east sector. The site is protected from the prevailing south-easterly waves by North Stradbroke Island. The site is influenced by the tidal channels within South Passage, the entrance to Moreton Bay between North Stradbroke and Moreton Islands. South Passage is influenced by two main channels, the Rous and Rainbow Channels. The more dominate Rainbow Channel has a north-south orientation and runs along the western foreshore of North Stradbroke Island and along the eastern foreshore of Moreton Island. The Rous Channel is orientated roughly in an east-west direction and joins the Rainbow Channel approximately halfway between Moreton and North Stradbroke Islands.

  • Traditional Law and Indigenous Resistance at Moreton Bay 1842-1855
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Southern Queensland ePrints [2005] ANZLH E-Journal Traditional law and Indigenous Resistance at Moreton Bay 1842-1855 LIBBY CONNORS* On the morning of 5 January 1855 when the British settlers of Moreton Bay publicly executed the Dalla-Djindubari man, Dundalli, they made sure that every member of the Brisbane town police was on duty alongside a detachment of native police under their British officer, Lieutenant Irving. Dundalli had been kept in chains and in solitary for the seven months of his confinement in Brisbane Gaol. Clearly the British, including the judge who condemned him, Sir Roger Therry, were in awe of him. The authorities insisted that these precautions were necessary because they feared escape or rescue by his people, a large number of whom had gathered in the scrub opposite the gaol to witness the hanging. Of the ten public executions in Brisbane between 1839 and 1859, including six of Indigenous men, none had excited this much interest from both the European and Indigenous communities.1 British satisfaction over Dundalli’s death is all the more puzzling when the evidence concerning his involvement in the murders for which he was condemned is examined. Dundalli was accused of the murders of Mary Shannon and her employer the pastoralist Andrew Gregor in October 1846, the sawyer William Waller in September 1847 and wounding with intent the lay missionary John Hausmann in 1845. In the first two cases the only witnesses were Mary Shannon’s five year old daughter and a “half- caste” boy living with Gregor whose age was uncertain but described as about ten or eleven years old.

    NORTH STRADBROKE ISLAND HISTORICAL MUSEUM ASSOCIATION INC. ANNUAL REPORT 15th September 2017 It is my pleasure to present the Annual Report for 2016/2017. The major milestone and event for the year was our 30th Anniversary celebration on 13th May with a community function at the Museum and the running of two big raffles. I thank all the generous donors to those raffles and to all the ticket buyers. We also thank Bernadette Ryan for her great work in arranging all the Raffle prizes and making the raffles so exciting. The function and the Raffles were very successful fund raisers and we will be carefully considering the special uses we put the money toward. As part of the 30th Anniversary celebrations, the Museum collected artwork from every Dunwich State School Class inspired by the Museum Collection, and I am sure everybody enjoyed them posted all over the Museum at the student’s discretion. Long serving Management Committee Members Margaret Nash and Barbara Smith will not be standing for re-election this year. Margaret as Treasurer and Barbara as Secretary and Display convener have for many years given invaluable service to the Museum. We wish them well in their retirement. On behalf of the Museum I want to express our appreciation of the work all the volunteers contributed through the year. And both Lisa and Elisabeth who contribute far more time and effort than we could ever pay them for. Lisa and Elisabeth have both been granted valuable Research Awards this year. Elisabeth is being funded to do research at the Queensland Maritime Museum and Lisa has been granted a Fellowship with the Queensland State Library.

    A whole new world: Global revolution and Australian social movements in the long Sixties Jon Piccini BA Honours (1st Class) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2013 School of History, Philosophy, Religion & Classics Abstract This thesis explores Australian social movements during the long Sixties through a transnational prism, identifying how the flow of people and ideas across borders was central to the growth and development of diverse campaigns for political change. By making use of a variety of sources—from archives and government reports to newspapers, interviews and memoirs—it identifies a broadening of the radical imagination within movements seeking rights for Indigenous Australians, the lifting of censorship, women’s liberation, the ending of the war in Vietnam and many others. It locates early global influences, such as the Chinese Revolution and increasing consciousness of anti-racist struggles in South Africa and the American South, and the ways in which ideas from these and other overseas sources became central to the practice of Australian social movements. This was a process aided by activists’ travel. Accordingly, this study analyses the diverse motives and experiences of Australian activists who visited revolutionary hotspots from China and Vietnam to Czechoslovakia, Algeria, France and the United States: to protest, to experience or to bring back lessons. While these overseas exploits, breathlessly recounted in articles, interviews and books, were transformative for some, they also exposed the limits of what a transnational politics could achieve in a local setting. Australia also became a destination for the period’s radical activists, provoking equally divisive responses.

ISBN-10: 0-9876055-0-X ISBN-13: 978-0-9876055-0-4 Aboriginal Camps and “Villages” in Southeast Queensland Tim O’Rourke University of Queensland In the early nineteenth century, European accounts of Southeast Queensland occasionally refer to larger Aboriginal camps as “villages”. Predominantly in coastal locations, the reported clusters of well-thatched domical structures had the appearance of permanent settlements. Elsewhere in the early contact period, and across geographically diverse regions of the continent, Aboriginal camps with certain morphological and architectural characteristics were labelled “villages” by European explorers and settlers. In the Encyclopaedia of Australian Architecture, Paul Memmott’s entry on Aboriginal architecture includes a description of semi- permanent camps under the subheading “Village architecture.” This paper analyses the relatively sparse archival records of nineteenth century Aboriginal camps and settlement patterns along the coastal edge of Southeast Queensland. These data are compared with the settlement patterns of Aboriginal groups in northeastern Queensland, also characterized by semi-sedentary campsites, but where later and different contact histories yield a more comprehensive picture of the built environment.
